BALDVIN PLEADS FORLARGERWAVY Foes in General Elections| Accuse Him of Starting | Arms Race. By the Associated Press. { LONDON, October 26.—Prime Min- Ister Stanley Baldwin's demand for increased defenses lent full momen- tum today to Great Britain's cam- paign for the November 14 general elections. The prime minister, pointing out that only three of Great Britain's cap- ital ships were post-war and many of her cruisers obsolete, said in a broad- cast from Chequers last night: “It you adopt the policy of whole- hearted support of the League of Nations, which is the policy of the whole country, and at any time war should result with the nation against which you are imposing sanctions that | bring in their train military action, the brunt will fall on your navy.” Discussing League efforts to halt | the Italo-Ethiopian war and the ab- sence of the United States, Germany and Japan from Geneva, the sturdy | prime minister asserted: | “I would never sanction this coun- try going into a blockade unless we were assured beforehand of the atti- tude of the United States.” Labor Sees Arms Race. The Labor party, in a campaign manifesto, promptly accused the na- tional government of starting an arms race. “While paying lip service to the League of Nations, it is planning a vast, expensive rearmament program which will only stimulate similar pro- grams elsewhere,” the Labor state- ment said. “This government is a danger to the peace of the world and the se-| curity of this country.’ The Labor party announced it fa- vored defenses necessary and consist- ent with League membership. but | sought a better reorganization of col- Jective security against any aggressor and reduction in the armaments of all countries. | Turning to domestic affairs, the | Labor party charged that “while doles | of varying kinds have been dispensed | on a lavish scale to industry after industry, not a single constructive step has been taken to improve the lot of the people.” Would End House of Lords. The manifesto also put forward a program of seeking power to abolish the House of Lords and to improve the procedure of the House of Com- | mons if Laborites won the general elections. The national government arranged to issue its own manifesto today. con- taining some 3.000 words and laying the foundation for election addresses by nearly 600 government candidates during the next 19 days. | King George, at a specially convened | meeting of the Privy Council in Buckingham Palace, approved last | night the proclamation dissolving Parliament and calling the elections. | While its meefing was purely for- mal, the council also approved the cabinet’s action in moving for sanc- tions against Italy—a fact which seemed to back up a declaration by authoritative sources that “sanctions absolutely will go on.” War Girl Reserves Girl Reserves of the Y.

Battling with deep-sea game fish on his recent cruise took just 21, pounds off President Roosevelt's weight. Capt. Ross T. McIntire of the Navy Medical Corps, who was a member of the presidential party, said Mr. Roosevelt stepped on the scales on his return and the dial showed 186 pounds. Before the vacation the Chief Executive weighed 188%:. Capt. Mclntire said 186 was approximately the President’s normal weight. NEW YORK, October 26.—Johnny Torrio—"Torrio the Immune” who taught Al Capone his trade—was be- lieved by police today to be the leader of a gang which has shot its way to control of New York City rackets. Dutch Schultz and four lieutenants were mowed down in Newark and New York Wednesday night, wiping out the chief opposition in upper Manhattan and the Bronx. “Pretty Louie” Amberg's body had been found in a burning automobile in Brooklyn earlier. ‘Thus, police believe, the way was cleared for the invading gang. Torrio, who retired as overlord of Chicago's rackets during the Capone- Moran strife—and lived while others died—was described as in league witn the “big six.” The sextet was named as Charles (Lucky) Luciano, Jacob (Gurrah) Shapiro, Louis (Lefty) Buckhouse, Charles (Buck) Siegel, Meyer Lansky and Abe (Longey) Zwillman. Federal agents pointed out that Luciano was known as “The Boss,” and that Schultz in his delirium said “The Boss” had shot him. They also asserted Torrio was the only “John” with whom they could associate other | references made by the dying gangster | New York's most lucrative racket | since repeal punctured the bootleg- ging business has been the policy game, or “numbers” racket. R.apldly; rising in importance was the “shylock | racket,” loans of small sums of money | at interest as high as 1,040 per cent | a vear with henchmen doing the col- | lecting. Race handbooks and labor troubles also are among the rackets which the | police theory says the new syndicate | has cornered. ‘ | | | Weather in s Stations. 3 " 0.10 Cloudy Abilene. Albany Atlanta.
